A Tierney Valentine's Day Sale

Mrs Mo's Holiday Giveaway, Part 1

In my book, Dec 1 means it's official the holiday shopping season. Today is Cyber Monday, a much safer and less hectic day to shop. It's also a perfect day for me to offer my first Holiday Giveaway!

Up for grabs is a stunning 4-piece travel set donated by Alyssa Tierney of A.Tierney.com. It retails for $104 and it can be yours for free! A.Tierney.com is your destination for preppy goodies for men, women, children and Greeks (the college kind)!

She's got Nantucket belts, flower headbands, travel kits, assorted print headbands (I am particularly fond of the field hockey sticks for girls), totes, baby gift sets, umbrellas, preppy pendants and more! Her products can be personalized for that extra added detail (I'm kinda hoping the monogrammed crew-neck sweater will come back in style). Tierney is also a NJ native and sits on the alumni board at Morristown-Beard with me.


So here is how you can win this lovely set. Drawing ends December 12:

1. Click into the comments section
   
2. Make sure you leave your name and email
3. In as few words as possible, answer the following: If you were going to celebrate the holidays by traveling, where would you go and why?

Remember, entries must be received by December 12th! I will pick the winner that weekend.
Good luck and have fun!

Big Style in a Small Town: Patina Home

Rob and I took a brief stroll in a fairly new store in Cranbury called Patina Home. It replaced the hometown hardware store, which I will gladly admit that I have shopped in a few times. Anyway...I fell in love with this place from the outside stoop! When you walk in, it is as if you have entered a Hampton's or New England design studio. The home goods in this store are bright, cheerful, full of brilliant color and design, and simply divine.

You can find anything from table linens, to stationary, to coasters, to rugs and bedding. And products from top-notch companies as well. When I get some more time, I will browse more and take pictures, but here is a sampling of the companies you'll find at Patina Home:

• Caspari
• Williamsburg Marketplace Collectibles
• Pine Cone Hill Bedding
• Preppy Cards
• Discoll Design Stationary
• Dash & Albert Rugs
• What's the Occasion Stationary & Gifts
• A. Tierney
• Maude Asbury

Make a stop at Patina Home and marvel at the cuteness that Cranbury is. Stay awhile if you can. Stop in to Hannah & Mason's or Cranbury Pizza for lunch. You will be happy you did. It really is like a movie town.
